I hadn't seen those statements. Here's a link for that passage of Falsani's interview, 2004 Interview: Obama Talks About Jesus, Heaven, and Sin

Wow, this guy doesn't understand Christianity. This is an eye-opener from obama: (GG stands for "God-Girl")

GG: Do you believe in sin?

OBAMA: Yes.

GG: What is sin?

OBAMA: Being out of alignment with my values.

GG: What happens if you have sin in your life?

OBAMA: I think it’s the same thing as the question about heaven. In the same way that if I’m true to myself and my faith that that is its own reward, when I’m not true to it, it’s its own punishment.

It is from an old interview, but methinks it is more honest (but still untruthful in parts) because he was less practiced in the art of politics.
